Charitable Street Collections

If you want to collect on the High Street or any other public street within the Borough, you will need a Street Collection permit. This includes sponsored walks if money is being collected along the route. There is no fee for a charity collection permit/licence.

If you need access for your vehicle to the pedestrian area of the High Street for the collection, an application form will be sent to you once the collection has been approved. All charity collection organisers must submit a Statement Form giving the details of their collection and will need to fill in an application form for vehicles to enter land belonging to us.

You should give us as much notice as possible on your collection so we can allocate dates (some dates are booked a year in advance) and a minimum of 14 days is usually needed to sort out the paperwork.
